Timberline High baseball player commits to Gonzaga

Incoming senior Parker Price, the 2015 Gatorade Idaho Baseball Player of the Year, gave a verbal commitment to Gonzaga on Saturday after visiting the Spokane campus.

Price, a 5-foot-10, 175-pound right-handed pitcher and shortstop for the 2015 5A state champion Wolves, posted a 13-2 record with a 2.21 ERA while batting .427 with one home run and 28 RBIs this past season.

Price also had a scholarship offer from Lewis-Clark State and interest from Pepperdine, Utah and Washington State, he said.

“Now I can enjoy my senior year and just have fun,” Price said. “I can kind of be a kid and go out and play the game I love without having too much to worry about since I already know where I’m going to college.”
